WPF 11/20-11/22

Hello I made some work bench’s for my radiator shop the bench’s are made from leftover’s from the kit. And the all the details came with the kit.

and here they are in the shop

Have a great weekend Frank.

**Frank…**Very nice. [tup]

Here’s a “old” shot from me. I’ve added a turn out to the main line since this shot. I might need to take a new picture [:-^].

Nice detailing in the wooden structure! I like the layout above, too…looks very natural as imaged. The backdrop is a nicely painted one.

The Toronto, Hamilton & Buffalo Railway is beginning to receive their new order of covered hoppers.

They are manufactured by the True Line Corp. [8D]

Here’s a car I’ve had for a while:

And an express reefer in MoW gray. It has yet to be lettered.

Great idea for a thread! Here are a few shots of the Grand Trunk Cold Storage Warehouse in Detroit – it is near the Milwaukee Junction. Very cool building! (No pun intended!). I plan on modeling it in a compressed form on my layout. I’ll post some more pics of Detroit at a later time.

The “D” offers a lot of modeling possibilities!

Hello … Nice work, everybody! Frank, I really like the workbenches, the tools, and the radiator shop…

Below are pictures of F units at work on my layout …

Playing around with digital backdrops:

I really like the digital backdrops. Hand painted can be nicely done, but I think the realistic nature of the backdrop you have there takes layouts to a whole new level.

Nice work everyone, I’m excited to see you guy’s pictures. I’ve been waiting for WPF to come. I like the idea how to retouch picture with digital, give me so realistic . Good one. And mine is just the latest shot with the same diorama.

Some progress shots from my friend Art Bormans Layout

Just for grins i tried cropping your photo and adjusting the color and contrast

Berlingo, AMAZING! The only thing I have to say is make the cars in the first picture shine less, and it will look just as good as the others.

Berlingo, that second photo looks like any normal day on the CSX, I thought it was real for a second!

I’ve gotten some progress on my yard scenery, as much as I can. Probably gonna have some pictures for y’all tomorrow.

**Terry…**That does look better. I normally do “crop”, but for some reason I didn’t on that shot.

ANyone else having problems uploading photos to this thread? I keep getting error messages saying the site is off line??

Nope. loads OK for me.

No problem here.

To heck with photobucket.

I call this “Nearing the Summit.”

Another. I had to rebuild both mainlines through this section yesterday and today. The alignment just did not like the SD75 trucks.
